Abstract
This article aims to address the current situation of museums, focusing specifically on how they perceive themselves, which is closely related to the very definition of museum. In this sense, it has been observed that museology has experienced difficulties in carrying out this redefinition. This has led to protracted efforts to conceptualise and adopt the term in the global context of ICOM. This analysis has taken us from the failed proposal of 2019 to the latest one, approved in August 2022. This highlights the close relationship between the terminology used and very relevant modern concepts, such as sustainability, social inclusion, community, among others. These concerns are clearly reflected in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
